Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can remember the good old days
When you and me used to hide away
Where the stars were shining or the sun was blinding our eyes

Yeah you filled up my glass
With promises that could never last
But I still find pieces of you in the back of my mind
And all of the things that we once said
Are not in my heart, they're in my head
That was the time to say goodbye
Let's put it to rest yeah, let it die

'Cause we don't, we don't need to talk about this now
Yeah we've been down that road before
That was then and this is now

The crowds in my heart they've been calling out your name
Now it just don't feel the same
Guess it's over, yeah we're done

I heard you made your way downtown
To the place that I've been hanging around
I was looking for your face in the crowd
But trying to keep my head down

Over time our wires crossed
Well you changed and truth got lost
All the things I would change if we could only rewind

You were a moment in life that comes and goes
A riddle, a rhyme that no one knows
A change of a heart, a twist of fate
Couldn't fix it, it's too late

'Cause we don't, we don't need to talk about this now
Yeah we've been down that road before
That was then and this is now

The crowds in my heart they've been calling out your name
But it just don't feel the same
I guess it's over, yeah we're done

Whoa, oh oh oh

We don't, we don't need to talk about this now
We don't, we don't need to talk about this now




We don't, we don't need to talk about this now
We don't, we don't need to talk about this now

Overall Meaning

The song "Talk" by Kodaline is a reflective and melancholic piece about coming to terms with the end of a relationship. The opening verse recalls the happy memories of when the singer and the other person used to spend time together, but it quickly becomes apparent that those moments belonged to a past that can never be fully recovered. The chorus brings out the central theme of the song: it's time to let go and move on. This idea is reinforced by the repetition of the phrase "we don't need to talk about this now" as a reminder that dwelling on the past is a waste of energy.


The lyrics suggest a sense of resignation and acceptance of what has happened, although there is still a tinge of sadness and longing. The line "All the things I would change if we could only rewind" is particularly poignant in this respect, as it expresses a regretful desire to turn back time and make things right. But ultimately, the song is about closure and the ability to let go of a relationship that is no longer viable.

Lyrics:
I'm loading up my clip, got a plan for tonight
A glock in my hand, in my pocket is a knife
I'm looking for a victim pushing keys on the scheme
I wanna make a stain for a million, ride clean


I'm loading up my clip, got a plan for tonight
A glock in my hand, in my pocket is a knife
I'm looking for a victim pushing keys on the scheme
I wanna make a stain for a million, ride clean
In the land of the fire


Murder in the land of the fire


I'm loading-loading-loading up my clip
Got a plan for tonight
A glock in my hand, in my pocket is a knife
I'm looking for a victim pushing keys on the scheme
I wanna make a stain for a million, ride clean


I'm loading up my clip, got a plan for tonight
A glock in my hand, in my pocket is a knife
I'm looking for a victim pushing keys on the scheme
I wanna make a stain for a million, ride clean
In the land of the fire


Murder in the land of the fire

Murder in the land of the fire

Murder in the land of the fire

Murder in the land of the fire
